Study Notes
CS201 Final Quizzes ch # 19 to 42 - Lecture # 19
tellg()
Return Value:tellg()
returns the current read position in a file.- Function for Moving File Pointer (Writing):
seekp()
is used to move the file pointer for writing operations. - Moving File Pointer Beyond End: When the file pointer is moved beyond the end of the file, it typically stays at the end of the file.
- Moving File Pointer Backward:
seekg(-10, ios::cur)
moves the file pointer 10 bytes backward from the current position. - File Output:
file.write(buffer, 100);
writes 100 bytes from the buffer to the file. - Reading Single Character:
file.get(ch);
reads a single character from the file and stores it inch
. - Writing Single Character:
file.put('A');
writes the character 'A' to the file. get()
Return Type: The return type of theget()
function ischar
.write()
Function: Thewrite()
function writes binary data from a buffer to a file.read()
Function: Theread()
function reads raw binary data from a file into a buffer.seekg()
Parameter for Beginning:ios::beg
is the argument inseekg()
for movement relative to the beginning of the file.tellg()
andseekg()
Combination: The combination ofseekg()
andtellg()
can be used to determine the size of a file.tellg()
and File Length Output: If a file contains 150 bytes,file.seekg(0, ios::end); cout << file.tellg();
will output 150

- Structure Declaration:
struct MyStruct { int a; float b; };
declares a structure. - Structure Initialization:
struct MyStruct s = {10, 20.5};
initializes a structure variable with values. - Accessing Structure Member with Pointer:
structPtr->memberName
is the correct way to access a structure member using a pointer. - Output of Structure Code: The output of the provided code snippet results in a output of "10 2.71".
- Returning Structure from Function: A structure can be returned from a function using the structure type itself.
- Passing Structure By Reference:
void func(MyStruct& s);
passes a structure as an argument by reference. - Output of Structure Array Code: The output of the given code will be "10 2.71"

- Bitwise Operation 5 & 3: The result of
5 & 3
is 1. - Bitwise OR Operator: The OR operator (
|
) results in 1 if either of the two bits is 1. - Bitwise XOR Operator: The XOR operator (
^
) results in a 1 if the bits are different. - Bitwise NOT Operator: The NOT operator (
~
) inverts all the bits. - Bitwise Operation 5 ^ 3: The result of
5 ^ 3
is 6. - Left Shift Operation: The output of
4 << 2
is 16. - Right Shift Operation: The output of
16 >> 2
is 4.

- Headers in C++: Use
#include <header.h>
to include a header file. - Macros in C++:
#define
defines a constant or macro. - Preprocessor Directives For Including Files: Use the
#include
directive. - Correct Macro Syntax:
#define ADD(x, y) (x + y)
is the correct syntax to define a macro that adds two numbers. - Conditional Compilation: Use preprocessor directives like
#ifndef
and#endif
. - Correct Syntax for Function Overloading: Use different parameter types or numbers.
- Overloading the Pre-Increment Operator:
Complex operator++(int)
is the correct way to overload the post-increment operator. - Output for Overloaded function: The output of the given overloaded function call is "Integer: 5"
- Overloaded Assignment Operator:
Complex operator=(const Complex& c);
is the correct syntax to overload the assignment operator. - Overloaded Insertion Operator: The overloaded insert operator returns
ostream&
. - Example in C++ for Dynamic Memory Allocation:new int[10];
allocates an array of 10 integers. - Function To deallocate memory (
delete[]
): Usedelete[] arr;
to deallocate dynamically allocated memory. - Class and Structures : A class may have an object of another class as its member (e.g.
struct Rectangle { int x; int y; };struct Point{ int a; int b;};
) . - Copy Constructor : A method that takes an object of the same class as the argument. The default copy constructor can lead to potential memory issues (e.g. if the class has pointers).
- Deep Copy: Used to improve memory management in classes with dynamically allocated memory.
- Methods: Methods are functions that belong or are part of a class, and that work with or on an object of that class.
- Friend Operator: Designed to have access to private components of a class in another function (e.g.
friend ostream & operator<< (ostream & out, Person &p)
). - Static Member Declaration:
static int count
is a static data member in C++ that holds the shared variable. - Default Behavior: Default behavior of classes is a structure being initialized to default values.
- Member Initializer List: The member initializer list is used to initialize members before the constructor body executes.
